Write structural formulas for each of the following alcohols and
(a)
(e)
(b)
(f)
(c)
(g)
(d)
(h)
Interpretation:
The structural formulas for the given alcohols and alkyl halides are to be written.
Concept introduction:
While making the structure of an alcohol, the name of the parent alcohol is used to determine the number of atoms in the parent chain.
The substituents attached and their positions on the parent chain are determined from the name and these are drawn accordingly.
Solid lines are used to show the covalent bonds between atoms.
The structural formula of a compound shows how the atoms are arranged and bonded to each other in the compound.

Two of these exhibit the following 1H-NMR spectra. Propose a structure for each of the isomers. Isomer A: δ = 0.92 (t, 7.8 Hz, 3 H), 1.20 (s, 6H), 1.49 (q, 7.8 Hz, 2H), 1.85 (s, 1H) ppm Isomer B: δ = 1.19 (s, 9 H), 3.21 (s, 3H) ppmarrow_forward
- Formaldehyde, H2C=O, is known to all biologists because of its usefulness as a tissue preservative. When pure, formaldehyde trimerizes to give trioxane, C3H6O3, which, surprisingly enough, has no carbonyl groups. Only one monobromo derivative (C3H5BrO3) of trioxane is possible. Propose a structure for trioxane.arrow_forwardAn unknown hydrocarbon Q has a formula C6H12. Q Reacts with osmium tetroxide to give a diol R. When oxidized with KMnO4 in an acidic medium, Q gives two products. One product is propanoic acid and the other a ketone S. Provide reaction equations to identify the possible structures of Q, R and S.arrow_forwardSodium triacetoxyborohydride, NaBH(OAc)3, is a mild reducing agent that reduces aldehydesmuch more quickly than ketones. It can be used to reduce aldehydes in the presence of ketones,such as in the following reaction:CH3 C CH2O OC H CH3 C CH2OCH2OHNaBH(OAc)3CH3COOH(a) Draw a complete Lewis structure for sodium triacetoxyborohydride.(b) Propose a mechanism for the reduction of an aldehyde by sodium triacetoxyborohydridearrow_forward
